Committee in the Spring, and a 60-member Repre-
sentative Committee to meet at Yearly Meeting
time.
The following changes and additions were
made to the original proposal:
1) Terms for Monthly Meeting representatives
will be for two years, with one-half being re-
placed or reappointed each year.
2) An Observer to Representative Committee
may also be appointed by each Monthly Meeting,
as preparation for becoming a representative at

meet at the time of the spring Executive Com-
mittee, except when the Clerk and Committee
chairman feel that such a meeting would benefit
the Executive Committee.
4) Executive Committee minutes will be sent

tives.
5) Representative Committee should meet
near the close of Yearly Meeting to evaluate the

Discipline as an appendix.

Meeting to Representative Committee — two

cents a mile, round trip, except:
a) no subsidy for those within 200 miles
of Yearly Meeting site,
b) three cents a mile round trip allow-
ance for those coming over 1000 miles, because
of the additional burden of the unmet expense,
and the extra travel time.
2) Executive Committee members (PYM offi-
cers, standing committee chairmen, Clerks or
representatives of regional meetings, and
Arrangements Chairman) — four cents a mile to
both spring and summer sessions.
3) Yearly Meeting committee members meet-
ing between sessions — a maximum of four cents
a mile round trip, which amount must be included
in their budget request. The Finance Committee,
in consultation with the Clerk, will develop an
equitable and uniform procedure for the use of
the limited funds available for such committee
travel.
4) Funds for expense money, including
travel, for resource persons desired by a com-
mittee in connection with its Yearly Meeting
program, should be provided for in the com-
mittee’s budget request. In special cases, a
committee may raise its ov^'n money for such
purposes, in consultation with the Clerk and
Finance Committee Chairman.
Although the Representative Committee will
have fewer members than the Interim Committee
did, and no funds will be needed for representa-
tives at the spring meeting, the potential ex-
pense to Yearly Meeting is increased through
these changes, because of the addition of com-
mittee chairmen and committee travel.
Friends in the Orient
Russell and Ann MacArthur (Calgary Meeting)
were designated to serve as Friends in the
Orient for 1963-64, while they are stationed in
Singapore under a Colombo Plan appointment.
In 1964-65, it is hoped that they may be able to
serve under appointment from Yearly Meeting in
mainland China, if arrangements can be made
and a way opens. The Treasurer was authorized
to receive funds for this project for use for
incidental travel expenses in 1963-64 and fuller
support in 1964-65. There is a possibility of
financial support from the Canadian and Ameri-
can Friends Service Committees for this second
year.

Korean Friends
Meeting approved a budgeted amount of S300
to help in the support of Dong Suk Cho while he
is at Pendle Hill this year.
The following were named to a committee to
correspond with Seoul Meeting concerning closer
relationship with our Yearly Meeting: Reginald
Price, Chairman; Sang dal Cha, Catherine and
David Bruner, Ruth and Floyd Schmoe.
A letter was sent to Herbert and Gertrude
Bowles (Honolulu Meeting), encouraging their
possible service in Korea and expressing the
hope that they might serve as a link between
Pacific Yearly Meeting and Seoul Friends.
Quaker Seminar in Mexico
At the Fourth Reunion of Friends in Mexico
a sense of “spiritual solidarity with our brothers
who in Cuba continue to maintain firmly the
ideals of our Society” was expressed, and a
proposal was made for a Quaker seminar includ-
ing Friends from Canada, the United States,
Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica and
Jamaica.
Esther Richards was named Chairman of a
Yearly Meeting committee to consult with
Friends World Committee and with Friends in
Mexico about this seminar, help them in any way
possible, and choose one or more delegates to
represent us at the seminar. Other members are
Charles Atlee, Ignacio Gonzalez, Howard
Richards, Edwin Sanders, and Ken Stevens.
Friend in Washington
The Peace Committee was instructed to
ascertain from Monthly Meetings what their in-
terest is in providing financial support for the
Friend in Washington program. The committee
will then forward the total amount pledged by
Meetings as a goal figure to the Friends Com-
mittee on National Legislation.

A MEDITATION
At the opening of the extra Saturday afternoon session,
arranged after certain frustration and confusion in the morn-
ing meeting, the Clerk shared with the Meeting a meditation
that had come to him in the interval. Since it seems an
apposite to all Friends gatherings, we feel it should be
shared more widely.
Make us an instrument of Thy will. Teach us
to be humble. . . . Help us to understand the
meaning of our explosiveness and impatience
with ourselves. . . . Can we come to terms with
our problems of freedom and control; authority
and individuality; large numbers and a longing
for intimacy; patience and urgency? We pray that
there may be a “vivid gathering of the group into
a double relatedness, at once vertical and
horizontal.”
- Edwin C. MORGENROTH, Clerk
SPECIAL SESSION ON RACE RELATIONS
On Saturday morning, Caroline Estes reported
on her attendance as Yearly Meeting delegate
to the fourth Race Relations Conference held
under the auspices of the Friends World Com-
mittee at Poughkeepsie, New York. Although
the conference dealt with current problems of
housing, employment and civil rights, and de-
cided to continue for another two-year period, it
seemed to her to lack a “soul” — a deep com-
mitment. In a moving statement, she asked
whether Friends realize that we are in the midst
not of reform but of revolution. How much are
Friends really involved?
Feeling moved to give deeper consideration
to the questions raised by the report. Friends
decided to hold a special general session that
afternoon. The Recording Clerk summarized this
open session as follows:
The Meeting engaged in a searching exercise
to understand the sources of Friends’ uneasiness
over our seeming lack of effective coming to
terms with the explosive issue of race relations.
We feel a need to identify with and give support
to the non-violent movement for equal rights. We
rejoice in the flowering of the spirit of recon-
ciliation evidenced by its courageous leaders.
But we also feel deeply the need to understand
and love those who oppose the struggle for
human dignity. There is more we can do in our
own communities. We hope cliannels of communi-
cation within Yearly Meeting may be found to
continue this search and to share those creative
activities which may lead us to a deeper commit-
ment and more dedicated involvement in this
struggle.

FRIENDS BULLETIN
EPISTLE
To FTiends Everywhere:
This year as never before we are aware that
we are truly an international Yearly Meeting.
With members present from Canada, Mexico and
the United States, including Hawaii, and with
business requiring us to act as an international
body, we rejoice that the Spirit knows no bound-
aries. We read with gratitude messages from
Friends everywhere, including special Epistles
from London Yearly Meeting, from Japan Yearly
Meeting, from the Reunion of Friends in Mexico,
and from the Friends Group in Seoul, Korea. We
welcomed back one of our two representatives
in the Orient, travelers, and American Friends
Service Workers from Mexico and Tanganyika.
Our life together was enriched by the presence
of Friends from Korea, Japan and New Zealand.
In action, too, we showed our new realization
of our international character. We have continued
to support the idea of “Friends in the Orient,”
appointing two Canadian Friends to represent us
while they are living in Singapore and later, as
way may open, in other parts of Asia. We unite
in spirit with the struggles of the Seoul group of
Friends to find its identity in an area isolated
from other Friends. We unite also with the con-
cern of Friends in Mexico for a seminar on non-
violence in conflict areas of Latin America.
In many ways we have been forced to assess
our internal growth. With children comprising
fully half of our membership, we are concerned
for their education and for the Friendly back-
ground we should provide them. With the increase
in our membership and of our member Meetings,
we wish to maintain and deepen acquaintance
with one another; and we have been severely
tried in the effort to come to terms with problems
of freedom and discipline, authority and indi-
viduality, patience and urgency, busy-ness and
growth in depth.
Moved by the increasing racial strife in the
United States, we have realized that this struggle
has grown into a major civil conflict. Although
non-violence is an important force, existing vio-
lence and hatred will leave a bitter harvest. We
can rejoice in the social revolution and in the
leadership it is producing. Yet we are troubled
about its tragedy and violence; we are concerned
about the nature of our own involvement. Are
Friends becoming so partisan that they can no
longer find love for those who hate as for those
who suffer? Shall we be able lovingly to help
those who will lose the struggle? Are we in real
danger of finding ourselves victors over men
rather than over injustice? We are concerned
that our peace testimony be rightly related to
this conflict. We earnestly desire that in our own
acts, wherever we are, we may truly practice
peace.
In our sessions, as in our lives, we cannot
and should not separate the secular from the
divine. We have joined together in worship and
found God in our midst. We have been aware of
God among us no less in our business discus-
sions, in the joy of our fellowship together, or
in the play of small children about us. In all we
do and share, God is among us and in us, asking
no outward acknowledgment, yet moving us to
inward recognition of His divine presence.

STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS
Peace Committee
Since last Yearly Meeting, Friends in the
Monthly Meetings seem to have moved to more
accord on ways to witness for peace. In our com-
mittee we founds this year, not the same sense
of urgency to persuade anyone to any particular
method. It is as if our belief in peace had been
tempered into a lasting effort in which we are
becoming comfortable.
Besides the proposals to continue the Friend
in the Orient and Friend in Washington projects,
and to send a letter in support of the test-ban
treaty (see page 1), we would like to mention
these concerns from Monthly Meetings:
Training Center. Establishment of some type of
training center in non-violent behavior to meet
the stress of our times. Instead of detailed sug-
gestions for implementing this concern, the
Peace Committee has prepared a query:
In these times when movements for racial equality
are creating critical and explosive situations, when
movements for peace are subjected to skepticism,
scorn and occasional violence. Friends may well
look to the depth and courage of their spiritual re-
sources. Individuals and groups may expect to face
a variety of situations testing the courage and
strength of their faith. Have we the will, the forti-
tude, the purity of purpose to testify to the social
and religious concerns of our time in the spirit of
humility and brotherhood so amply exemplified by
Friends of other times?
Letters for Peace. Roberta Walen of Orange
Grove Meeting is coordinating a program of let-
ters for peace. The Committee has made avail-
able to those interested copies of an outline for
this program. Further details may be obtained by
writing to Roberta at 530 E. Orange Grove Blvd.,
Pasadena, California.
Peace Centers. Several Monthly Meetings have
minuted the strengthening of Meeting peace pro-
grams that came from joining with other groups
and individuals within the community. Such joint
efforts mitigate the uneasiness we all feel at

times that we may just be talking to ourselves.
Below are excerpts from Sacramento Meeting’s
detailed description of its cooperation with Turn
Toward Peace in developing the Sacramento
Peace Center.
Nationally and locally all organizations and indi-
viduals that wish to work for a world without war
under law, with freedom, can relate their efforts with-
out diluting their own unique contribution. In Sacra-
mento, peace leaders and also leaders of public
affairs, church, labor and professional organizations
meet regularly to guide a community -wide peace edu-
cation effort. Slowly the peace movement is changing
from an isolated group to an effective part of the
community.
The work of educating the public is divided among
100 volunteers, who each become proficient in some
part of the task — literature displays, speakers
bureau, telephone trees, poster programs, peace
Christmas cards, TV programs, feature stories in
newspapers, contact with community leaders, and
spreading information on legislative action.
The task of changing public opinion is looked
upon as a long-term job, and volunteer leaders under-
go periodic training. More than forty research leaders
throughout the country produce policy proposals
suggesting initiatives in disarmament, world law,
world community, meeting needs for social change,
economic planning for disarmament, and non-violent
defense of freedom.
Our experience leads us to the conclusion that
Turn Toward Peace provides a needed forward step
for the American peace movement, and encourages
Friends to participate in and help develop Peace
Centers in their own communities.
- HARRIET SCHAFFRAN, Chairman
Ministry and Oversight
We of the Yearly Meeting Committee on Min-
istry and Oversight have had an interesting year,
visiting Meetings, conferring with committees
on ministry and oversight, corresponding with
one another across great distances, and planning
some of the gatherings to take place at Yearly
Meeting. In all of this we try with our inner eye
to see the invisible within the visible acts of
devotion to Friends Meetings.
It has been inspiring to observe the work of
local committees. The dual responsibilities of
improving the Meeting for Worship and providing
pastoral care are not easy ones in a day when
adventurous and troubled persons often seek
peace and guidance in a Friends Meeting. We
find Friends longing not only for more time to
give to their committee work, but for wisdom and
understanding as to what to do in situations of
deep personal need. We are happy to report that
we find many sensitive and gifted Friends help-
ing in this respect.
We are encouraged by the growing self-
reliance of many Meetings and the development
of regional committees on ministry and oversight
in Southern California, College Park Quarter,
and Northwest Quarter. These regional com-
mittees not only relieve the busy Yearly Meeting
Committee of considerable work and expense;
they provide a group which can know intimately
the situations in the Meetings of an area, they
can meet or confer frequently, and there can be
continuity in their work from year to year. If the
recommendation of the March Interim Committee
is followed, that members of the Yearly Meeting
Committee in a given region should also be on
the regional committee, then these committees
can be a vital link between a Monthly Meeting
group and the Yearly Meeting. We do not forget
the values for a small or discouraged local com-
mittee of Friends coming quite a distance to
express the interest of Yearly Meeting as a
whole in their work. And the reverse is important:
if we of the Yearly Meeting Committee are to
garner the insights and new ways of working
produced in a local Meeting and make them
known to others, then we must have first-hand
contacts with Friends in their own Meetings.
— BEATRICE CROUSE, Chairman
Social Order Committee
This Committee has concentrated its energies
during this Yearly Meeting on bringing before us
opportunities to become more vitally aware and
informed in those areas of social concern in
which there are either significant and fruitful
activities to report, or where there appears to be
a serious neglect of responsibility and oppor-
tunity. (I use the word “appears,” since it is
not easy to gauge the extent of Friends’ involve-
ment in social issues because, thank goodness,
not all things happen through committees or other
formalized channels.) We have been fortunate in
having excellent resource persons for our Yearly
Meeting workshops on Services to Offenders and
Indian Affairs, as well as fine reports on the
Friends Race Relations Conference and the
Arizona loyalty oath case. (These are covered
elsewhere in this issue.)
Letters and minutes from several Monthly
Meetings have helped us to know that we have
been devoting ourselves to those things which
are important to the Meetings.
Fresno Meeting has minuted its concern for
equal rights:
Since it is our aim to bring about a condition in
society where all men have equality of opportunity
and since we are concerned that historical patterns
in our country and other countries have resulted in
discrimination where minority groups have been de-
prived of opportunity, and have been systematically
segregated and deprived of their rights as men equal
under God, we urge individual Friends and constit-
uent meetings to work unstintingly in a positive and
creative manner, without resort to violence, and
through love of God and their felloiv man, to do jvhat
they can to equalize opportunity and promote self-
respect and dignity for all groups uithin our nation.
Page 6 - September, 1963
FRIENDS BULLETIN
Ruth Schooler of Sacramento Meeting reports
that a proposal for rehabilitation centers for
alcoholics has been referred to an interim study
committee of the California Legislature.
Santa Fe Meeting tells of their concern for
control of alcohol and treatment of alcoholics,
their active participation in the Pima Monthly
Meeting loyalty oath case, and in Arthur Mor-
gan’s efforts on behalf of education in India.
Delta Meeting has also expressed concern
over loyalty oaths, stating that Friends do not
object to affirming their support of the Consti-
tution and the country, but do object to the dis-
claimer loyalty oath.
As a committee, we are not aware of the ex-
tent of Friends’ participation in civil liberties
concerns. Although we believe more local educa-
tion should be undertaken, we would also en-
courage Friends to join in the national efforts
in this field, such as the National Committee to
Abolish the House Un-American Activities Com-
mittee. Writing on behalf of this group, Clarence
Pickett states:
Incontrovertible evidence (is) presented daily in the
press and in national periodicals of the strong and
growing movement in our country to turn it away from
its traditional democratic guarantees toward a con-
formist state. This movement is growing, in our
considered judgment, into an alarming threat to our
liberties. Its chief source of strength is the House
Un-American Activities Committee.
We hope that during the coming year Friends,
both individually and as Meetings, will actively
participate in many of these areas where we are
called upon to bear our witness to the dignity
and freedom of man.
— HERBERT FOSTER, Chairman

JUNIOR YEARLY MEETING
YOUNG FRIENDS EPISTLE
Dear Friends,
This Yearly Meeting the Young Friends found
that expected unity and deep fellowship that
usually came spontaneously before had to be
worked for rather than be taken for granted. We
all went to our meetings and followed our sched-
ules, but there was no feeling of unity or depth
to the group.
When the Young Friends finally realized this
lack and shared their concern, the silent spirit
of Yearly Meeting began to emerge, gaining
momentum with every new group experience and
climaxing in a gathered meeting at our final
campfire. This spirit was all the more precious
because we had been so close to losing it.
Though we felt this fellowship within our
group and though other groups experienced
similar fellowship, we found it missing in the
Yearly Meeting as a whole.
Small groups are a part of Yearly Meeting,
but the oneness of the entire meeting is more
important and harder to achieve. . . .
On behalf of Pacific Junior Yearly Meeting,
CONNIE JUMP, Clerk
COLLEGE PROGRAM
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste and
remember what peace there is in silence.
Thirty-two College Young Friends held their
second organized session at this 1963 Yearly
Meeting. At the beginning planning session, we
decided our heeds would best be met by keeping
the program as free as possible.
We found resource people within Yearly Meet-
ing to speak to us on topics pertinent to our
current concerns. These included:
— Bob Barns on the problems of conscientious
obj ection
— A joint meeting with the adults to hear Cather-
ine Bruner speak on her year as a Friend in
the Orient
— A discussion on Indian affairs with Marie
Potts, Nicholas Helburn, and Mary Isely
— Leonard Dart on the role of a Quaker scientist
Afternoons and some evenings were left open
for recreation and spontaneous discussion. Here
we participated in swimming, a hardy game of
volley ball, folk-singing, and some rousing vocal
interchange on mores and related issues. The
climax of our week was a visit to Sweetholm
Forestry Lookout, where Jean Prideaux has been
working this summer. Jean gave us a complete
and stimulating tour of the lookout, with its
beautiful scenery.
In evaluation of our time spent together, we
asked ourselves these questions: Why did we as
individuals come? What was our purpose here?
Has this been a meaningful experience?
Among ourselves we sensed a certain unity,
achieved in fellowship rather than through verbal
communications. Our somewhat unprogrammed
schedule provided an opportunity for intimate
communication that makes for a sense of the
meeting. However, we felt a spirit lacking in
meeting with the worship-fellowship groups and
with Yearly Meeting as a whole, perhaps a fis-
sion where there should have been a bond.
May we learn from these experiences.
- KAREN SCOTT
Tacoma Meeting
JUNIOR-SENIOR HIGH-LIGHTS
Among the 114 junior and senior high Young
Friends attending Yearly Meeting were those
from New Zealand, Mexico, Hawaii, and Brazil.
We sent a communication of support to Presi-
dent Kennedy for the nuclear test ban treaty,
signed by the entire Junior Yearly Meeting.
At the Perry Center for Emotionally Disturbed
Children in Portland, senior high Young Friends
worked together in the garden and improving the
grounds.
On our last evening, we had a stunt program
and a campfire.
The Young Friends “mascot,” Doby Mick,
a driftwood whale given to us by Chuck James,
joined us in our last general Yearly Meeting
session.
In most cases, the worship-fellowship groups
were again a unique experience. But some of
Yearly Meeting was disappointing, since we
felt that we could not reach each other because
we were pushed by a schedule and trapped in
organizational busy-ness. As a whole, though,
this was a beautiful time together, and perhaps
we can live a bit of Yearly Meeting every day,
until next year.

FRIENDS BULLETIN
FROM THE WORKSHOPS
Education
Resource person: Joseph Vlaskamp, Reli-
gious Education Secretary, Friends General Con-
ference.
We began our three sessions by exploring two
broad, inter-related questions: Why First Day
school? and On what principles should religious
education be based? Friends felt that First Day
school was needed to supplement religious edu-
cation in the home, but were not clear what its
principles should be. The main difficulties
focused on the reluctance of Friends to indoc-
trinate their children, the vagueness of many
adults concerning their own religious beliefs,
the absence of unity among Friends as to reli-
gious terminology, and the problem of arriving
at a proper balance between our children’s needs
and interests and the conceptual demands of the
material we want to teach. Meeting experiments
in dealing with these problems ranged from a
strong emphasis on silent worship to a variety
of instructional programs,
Joseph Vlaskamp emphasized the need for
conscientious development of a philosophy of
religious education within each Meeting, to
serve as a framework within which parents and
teachers can work. Once an over-all perspective
has been achieved, there are many excellent
materials available from Friends General Con-
ference and other sources to aid a Meeting in
developing a curriculum.
He further pointed out that religious educa-
tion should embrace the whole Meeting, begin-
ning with adults. Several Friends reported on
valuable adult study programs they had under-
taken, the success of which seems to depend
largely on whether leadership becomes a group
responsibility. It was suggested that a full reli-
gious education program should deal with direct
experience as well as with literature.
The sessions were well attended, providing
Friends with an opportunity to share problems
and insights in an area of great concern to most
Meetings.

Reno Meeting
Ministry and Oversight
W orkshop. We held a two-day, pre-registered
workshop to consider the question: “What is the
source of our power?’’ To encourage more inti-
mate and fruitful sharing, we divided into two
groups, one led by Beatrice Crouse, the other by
Hugh Campbell-Brown.
“The source of our power’’ was taken to
mean both the source in our individual lives and
that in our Meetings, and ways of getting close
to this source were discussed. Attention was
also given to situations that seem to diminish
the power within a meeting. Inevitably, we also
discussed the question that arises whenever two
or more M & 0 people gather: how to deal with
the individual who exhibits disruptive behavior
in the Meeting for Worship.
One group spent some time considering the
different approaches to spiritual growth, and
ways of relieving the tensions that can arise
among them to the detriment of the spiritual
function of the Meeting. It was agreed that ways
must be found to encourage better understanding
and acceptance of different approaches, within
the framework of Friends’ beliefs.
Open session. On Saturday afternoon, the yearly
meeting on ministry and oversight was held, and
was open to all who are now or will be serving
on local committees of Ministry and Oversight or
Counsel. This session dealt with a number of
specific problems that arise in Meetings, mostly
in handling personal problems of members and
attenders. Divorce is a crisis that afflicts many
Meetings, and the extent of the Meeting’s respon-
sibility in the case of members married under
its care was considered. We touched on the con-
flicting responsibilities of Ministry and Oversight
members for the well-being of the Meeting and for
the welfare of the individual whose personal
needs are being met in ways that are distressing
to the group; and agreed that no one answer is
available beyond the extensive use of love and
patience. Helpful suggestions were made about
the prevention and control of gossip, which
sometimes flourishes behind the mask of concern.
As always. Friends were aware of the dis-
parity of resources between larger and smaller
Meetings — one not always balanced by a propor-
tionate difference in the number and seriousness
of problems within the Meetings. Regional com-
mittees. on Ministry and Oversight can often be
of great help to small Meetings faced with large
problems.
Both the workshop and the yearly session
showed strong evidence of careful planning, and,
if the vitality of the discussions is an adequate
gauge, local Meetings should benefit extensively.

Quaker Dialogues
Guided by members of Claremont Meeting,
two sessions of a special interest workshop
were held to suggest the value that a series of
Quaker Dialogues might have for Monthly Meet-
ings seeking a means of deepening the spiritual
relationships among its members. (For more de-
tails about this method and its adaptation by
FRIENDS BULLETIN
Claremont Meeting, see the July 15th Friends
Journal and the August issue of Friends Bulle-
tin.)
By sharing their feelings in the intimacy of
a small group, without cross-questioning or the
need to defend their positions, people can seek
out the deep roots of their experiences and re-
late them to the attitudes and values they bring
to their present lives. Rachel du Bois’new book.
The Art of Group Conversation (Association
Press, 291 Broadway, New York 7, N. Y., 13.50),
was suggested as a guiding text for those wish-
ing to undertake Quaker Dialogues in their own
Meetings.
About thirty persons attended each session,
largely a different group each day. There was a
sense of a real need to learn how to communi-
cate with each other on deeper levels, rather
than through the intellectual surface we so often
use, and which leave unsatisfied the spiritual
hunger of man to relate meaningfully to his fel-
low man.

Social Order
“Services to Offenders” was the title of the first
session of the social order interest group, at
which Mara Moser of Pasadena and Rosemary
Goodenough of Los Altos reported on the prob-
lems encountered by the families of men and
women in prison. They described conditions of
utter destitution leading to hopelessness, fear
of any authority, and school drop-outs, all occur-
ring in the midst of our affluent society. The
The work of these two in befriending, encourag-
ing and materially assisting such families has
been taken up by the Pasadena Council of
Churches and the Santa Clara County Friends
Outside. Both service projects report consider-
able achievement, and one has led to the estab-
lishment of a society of ex-prisoners determined
to assist each other in rehabilitation. With indi-
vidual effort, similar service organizations
could be formed in other communities. Here is an
immense amount of unmet human need which
calls for an active, personal, Christian response.
We note to the Meetings that both Rosemary
Goodenough and Mara Moser would be delighted
to receive invitations to visit Meetings with this
concern.
Loyalty Oath. Wini Osta (Pima Meeting) de-
scribed the struggle of the four Tucson high
school teachers who have been teaching without
pay while seeking to test the constitutionality
of the Arizona loyalty oath law. Having lost in
the State Supreme Court last spring, they hope
to bring the case to the United States Supreme
Court, if they can raise the $10,000 needed for

court costs and support of the plaintiffs. A vic-
tory would have nation-wide repercussions in
the field of civil liberties. Friends wishing to
help may send checks made out to Richard
Corby, Treasurer, and sent to the Emergency
Committee to Defend Liberties of Arizona Public
Employees, 2648 North Fair Oaks, Tucson, Ariz.
Indian Affairs. Marie Potts of the California
League of Indians, herself a member of the
Maidu tribe, served as resource person for a
workshop session on contemporary problems of
Indians. Where Indians wish to maintain their
own traditions and separate identity, the many
obstacles created by modern complexities must
be thoughtfully removed where possible. Those
who wish to integrate into the general community
must be helped by scholarships and other means
to obtain the vocational and professional train-
ing that will enable them to achieve self-support
and dignity. In either case, Caucasians must be-
come more knowledgable about Indian culture
and conditions, so that out of enlightenment and
concern he can be of real help to the Indian.

THE MORNING AFTER
While washing a few dishes which had been
left in the sink on our departure for Yearly Meet-
ing, the following thoughts came this morning.
. . . If any of my words or deeds offended anyone
during Yearly Meeting, I ask forgiveness.
. . . If any of my words did not make sense,
please share your thoughts with me.
...If other Friends seemed away out in their
expressions, share with them your uneasiness.
While scrubbing those dishes, I realized that
time only continues a process, whether it be
hardening or softening. Could it be that time
acts in a similar way on our opinions of others?
If it does, might we soak well our thoughts in a
bath of prayer, mediation, and continuous sharing
with these Friends.
This joy I feel this morning came, I believe,
from God’s spirit of love being present and mani-
fest in the daily lives of Yearly Meeting mem-
bers.
For all the acts of service performed by the
Yearly Meeting servants, I express my deepest
thanks.

A CONCERN
In a recent article about Pacific Yearly Meet-
ing, Howard Brinton said we were growing so
rapidly there might be a tendency for us to be-
come “watered-down.” I definitely feel we have
become “watered-down” in our meeting for wor-
ship, at Yearly Meeting. A friend asked me at
Sunday dinner if this was a usual Friends meet-
ing, remarking that it seemed like a “testi-
monial” meeting.
Have we failed to be the type of person to
whom God speaks, or through whom He sends His
messages? Friends’ remedy for this is not in
song, but in each one’s searching and quiet
meditation and deep worship together.

ON THE ORDERING OF YEARLY MEETING
I am perennially astonished that our fast-
growing Yearly Meeting finds the grace, some-
how, to keep its feet, get through business, and
meet the wide demands of Friends. Much credit
belongs to the Clerks that this was the case at
McMinnville.
My comment here has to do with the slowness
with which, under present ordering, the Yearly
Meeting reaches any depth of worship. The intro-
ductory periods of worship of the early general
sessions were short and preoccupied. It was not
until well along in the week that the Yearly
Meeting began to find some depth of spiritual
experience.
I am aware of our crowded schedule, and that
the morning worship-fellowship groups are meant
to serve our spiritual needs. I believe they do
so, in an intimate form, and should be kept
(though they need to avoid becoming intellectual
discussions). Butwe need to commune spiritually
as a Yearly Meeting, too. To nurture and speed
this communion, I suggest that the very first
meeting of Friends at Yearly Meeting be one for
worship, in charge of the Ministry and Oversight
Committee. This might be, say, at 4:00 p.m. on
“Committee Day,” which more and more finds a
large part of Yearly Meeting already present.
The meeting should be open to all, and Monthly
Meeting Committees of Ministry and Oversight or
Counsel charged to feel responsible for it, and
come “prepared in mind and heart.” Here, with-
out introductions or other verbalizing, we might
settle at once into worship, allowing our deepest
searchings to come into focus in the light of
divine Truth.
The first general session of Yearly Meeting
might then build further on this beginning, open-
ing with at least a half-hour of worship. The
original function of the Yearly Meeting Ministry
and Oversight Committee involved much this
sort of meeting. In my opinion, our business and
social concerns would be furthered rather than
set back, by recognizing the priority of worship
in the ordering of Yearly Meeting.

Response of one of our three-year-olds, on first hearing her
mother speak of God: "God! Is that His name? . . . And
does He have a name-tag?"
The following conversation between two youngsters was

Boy: Why are you playing with her? You don't even like her.
His five-year-old sister, indignantly: I do too! I’m a Quaker,

CHILDREN’S PROGRAM
As a member of the committee working on the
children’s program for the 1963 Yearly Meeting,
my impression is of a group of harried adults
trying desperately to stretch materials and plans
.to cover an unexpectedly large number of chil-
dren. Instead of the 15 to 20 children expected
for each class, we had between 20 and 35.
Thanks to the Arrangements Committee, we had
good big rooms, and could also expand to the
lawn for outdoor games.
We took our theme from the Yearly Meeting’s
interest in the Friend in the Orient, and pre-
sented to the children a medley of stories,
customs, crafts and games from the Orient. One
evening Catherine Bruner shared with the chil-
dren some of the interesting things she brought
back from Japan. On another evening, we had an
“Oriental Festival,” combining ideas from
several countries.
In the afternoon, there was a very popular
craft program, supplemented by games, movies,
and slides. The nearby, well-supervised city
swimming pool was a great help.
Special mention should be made of the chil-
dren’s opening worship each day, brief but most
thoughtfully planned, and giving the children a
real sense of being participants in a Friends
meeting for worship.
In spite of the fact that the leaders found the
program strenuous, other adults have commented
that in general the children seemed relaxed and
content.

CLOSING MINUTE
Yearly Meeting is always a “loving struggle”
for the truth. In our search together here during
these past few days we have discovered anew
how deep our love is for each other and hoiv
much we need each other. Because we love one
another we have achieved a challenging and
meaningful sense of unity in spite of (or perhaps
because of) our differences in age, experience,
insight, and convictions.
Pope John XXIII in his remarkable encyclical.
Peace on Earth, has said: “Every believer in
this world of ours must be a spark of light, a
center of love, a vivifying leaven amidst his fel-
low men. And he will be this all the more per-
fectly the more closely he lives in communion
with God in the intimacy of his soul.”
We adjourn to meet August 16, 1964 on the
campus of California Western University, Point
Lorna, San Diego, California.

Linfield College, a liberal arts college founded in 1849, is
under the auspices of the American Baptists. We are in-
debted to Professor Kenneth Holmes of Linfield, who
opened his delightful historical sketch of the college with
this sectarian story:
Quaker farmer to recalcitrant cow at milking time: "Thee
knows that I will not swear at thee. And thee knows that I
will not strike thee. But what thee does not know, cow, is
that I might sell thee to a Baptist who would beat the devil
out of thee.”
